RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS
Engine Oil Recommendation
INFOID:0000000012432246
NISSAN recommends the use of an energy conservi ng oil in order to improve fuel economy.
Select only engine oils that meet the American Petroleum Institute (API) certification and International Lubrica-
tion Standardization and Approval Committee (ILSAC) ce rtification and SAE viscosity standard. These oils
have the API certification mark on the front of the container. Oils whic h do not have the specified quality label
should not be used as they could cause engine damage.
Anti-Freeze Coolant Mixture RatioINFOID:0000000012432247
The engine cooling system is filled at the factory with a pre-diluted mixture of 50% Genuine NISSAN Long Life
Antifreeze/Coolant (blue) and 50% water to provide year-round anti-freeze and coolant protection. The anti-
freeze solution contains rust and corrosion inhibitors. Additional engine cooling system additives are not nec-
essary.
WARNING:
• Do not remove the radiator or coolant reservoir cap when the engine is hot. Wait until the engine and radiator cool down. Serious burns could be caused by high pressure fluid escaping from the radia-
tor.
• The radiator is equipped with a pressure type radiator cap. To prevent engine damage, use only a
Genuine NISSAN radiator cap.
CAUTION:
• When adding or replacing coolant, be sure to use only Genuine NISSAN Lo ng Life Antifreeze/Cool-
ant (blue) or equivalent. Genuine NISSAN Long Life Antifreeze/Coolant (blue) is pre-diluted to pro-
vide antifreeze protection to -34 °F (-37 °C). If additional freeze protect ion is needed due to weather
where you operate your vehicle, add Genuine NISSAN long life Antifreeze/Coolant (blue) concentrate
following the directions on the container. If an equivalent coolant other than Genuine NISSAN Long
Life Antifreeze/Coolant (blue) is used, follow the coolant manufact urer’s instructions to maintain
minimum antifreeze protection to -34 °F (-37 °C). The use of other types of coolant solutions other
than Genuine NISSAN Long Life Antifreeze/Coolant (blue) or equivalent may damage the engine
cooling system.
• Mixing any other type of coolant other than Genuine NISSAN Long Life Antifreeze/Coolant (blue),
including Genuine NISSAN Long Life Antifreeze/Coolant (green), or the use of non-distilled water will
reduce the life expectancy of the factory filled coolant.

tioner specification label”.

1. Install radiator drain plug and reservoir tank, if removed.
CAUTION:
Be sure to clean drain plug and install with new O-ring.
2. If water drain plugs on cylinder block were removed, close and tighten them. Refer to EM-93, "
Exploded
View".
3. Remove air duct from between air cleaner case and electric throttle control actuator. Refer to EM-26,
"Removal and Installation".
4. Disconnect heater hose (1) at location ( ) as shown. • Position heater hose as high as possible.
: Front
5. Fill radiator until engine coolant flows out of the disconnected heater hose and then reconnect the heater
hose.
6. Finish filling the engine and reservoir tank with water and reinstall the radiator cap.
7. Install air duct in between air cleaner case and electric throttle control actuator. Refer to EM-26, "
Removal
and Installation".
8. Run the engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.
9. Rev the engine two or three times under no-load.
10. Stop the engine and wait until it cools down.
11. Drain water from the system. Refer to MA-16, "
ENGINE COOLANT : Draining Engine Coolant".
12. Repeat steps 1 through 11 until clear water begins to drain from radiator.
FUEL LINES
FUEL LINES : InspectionINFOID:0000000012432256

• The combination meter receives signals from swit
ches, sensors and modules for operating the following
functions on the information display.
- Odo/trip meter
- Engine coolant temperature gauge
- Fuel gauge
- Trip computer
- Interrupt indication
- Meter illumination level
- Low fuel warning

ODO/TRIP METER
The combination meter calculates mileage using the v ehicle speed signal from the ABS actuator and electric
unit (control unit) and displays the mileage on the information display.
ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE GAUGE
The engine coolant temperature gauge indicates the engine coolant temperature.
The ECM provides an engine coolant temperature signal to the combination meter via CAN communication.
FUEL GAUGE
Control Outline
The fuel level sensor unit sends a variable resistor signal to the combination meter. The fuel gauge indicates
the approximate fuel level in the fuel tank.
Refuel Control
The unit detects the driver is refueling the vehicle and accelerates the fuel gauge segment movement if the
fuel level changes by 9 (2-3/8 US, 2 lmp gal) or more.

Low Fuel Warning
The low fuel warning turns ON when the fuel level in t
he fuel tank reaches approximately 7.8 (2-1/8 US gal,
1-3/4 Imp gal).
LOOSE FUEL CAP WARNING
The LOOSE FUEL CAP message will display in the informat ion display when the fuel-filler cap is not tightened
correctly. The message will turn off as soon as the ECM detects the fuel-filler cap is properly tightened. The
ECM provides a loose fuel cap signal to the combination meter via CAN communication lines.
